Sauerdough Lodging is a delightful B&B in downtown Seward about 2 miles from the train depot. The lodge is about 2 blocks from the Sea Life center which is an informative, fun, educational marine center in Seward that was built by proceeds paid out by Exxon after the oil spill in Valdez.
The lodge is run by a very nice man named Gordon Turner who's a real character. He is a collector of Pepsi Cola and Oregon Duck (the college team) memorabilia and has it proudly displayed in the front lobby.
My girlfriend and I stayed in a room with a shared bath. The room was clean and comfy, and tastefully decorated.
A self-serve breakfast is included in the price of accomodations and on premise laundry facilities are available for guests to use at no charge. There is also a house phone in the front common area available to use to make reservations for day cruises, kayak tours, and Iditarod dog kennel excursions in Seward.
We would recommend the Sauerdough as a good value in Seward.
Hint for travelers in Seward: It is 2 miles from the train depot to downtown Seward (where our accomodations where located). If you're arriving in Seward at the train depot and exhausted it may make sense to hail a cab near the depot or wait for the trolley that runs every half hour. We decided to walk from the depot to our accomodations and were about to "fall over" once we got there (in part due to the unseasonably warm Alaskan weather on that day).
